In the context of MAF the updates are OK. Rodok Haris is good, being able to add Raktoraks to fireteams is useful and the Sogorat with Full Auto makes that Feuerbach formidable. I like the idea of the new Oznat. The Autocannon Haris thing (If they can haris) is correcting a ridiculous decision in the first place. However looked at in the context of other sectorials it all looks a bit sticking plaster. They are all nice to have but doesn't really address much of what people take issue with about MAF. Ultimately I think I've accepted that CB are happy with them how they are and I'll just have to work with what I have.
Because not everyone is obsessed with costs/stats and just like to play the models they like? Even if it's not the best profile around (it's not the worst either, at all), that burst 3 Feuerbach with the -3 MOD is scary enough to me :) And let's not forget the Full Auto L2 Assault pistol! EDIT : And with a cheap Raktorak, it looks like a fun Duo Fireteam to play!
I like model too. Played it for years and years, waiting for it to finally be good. Now? Finally good, but too much expense! Hoping after years to finally fix.
I agree that the FA Sogarat is not so good. At least not in MAF. I'll use him a lot in Vanilla. IF the FA Sogarat was a LT option, it would be balls to the walls awesome. 3 Feuerbach shots are better than 5 HMG shots against anything not packing TO Camo or ODD.
Again, you're only talking about its cost. If you like the mini, just play it and it will be doing just fine... It's not like it's the worst profile ever, far from that.
Which is what Morats needed help against. Shooting TO and ODD always goes bad for Morats. Full Auto Sogarat HMG would have been good solution.
I strongly disagree that shooting TO and ODD is a problem for a faction that packs DTWs up the wazoo. Camo is a problem, but for other reasons than killing the bloke hiding behind it. However, I have made another thread solely with my opinions on this update, and they're overall negative.
It is a shooting game. Let Sogarat be good at shooting please. Full Auto 2 HMG would have been very Morat way to deal in TO Camo and ODD.

That too. In particular, a Sensor option with a Vulkan Shotgun and a disposable Dogged Chainrifle assistant.
Okay, I give up. Sogarat HMG should not have Full Auto 2. Wanting to shoot well at ODD is bad idea. Bad to want. Turns out Sogarat was fine all long. Never needed any better shooting. Just use chainrifle and smoke on everything.
